2017 Nissan Sentra

I HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME ISSUES AS DESCRIBED IN 'SERVICE BRAKES PROBLEM OF THE 2014 NISSAN SENTRA 49', WHICH WAS REPORTEDLY SIMILAR TO INVESTIGATION "PE14-014". WHILE DRIVING A RENTAL VEHICLE ON A HIGHWAY (LEFT LANE) AT APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, ALL OF A SUDDEN IT ACCELERATED AND IT WAS AS IF THE VEHICLE TOOK OVER THE STEERING - I COULD NOT KEEP THE STEERING WHEEL STRAIGHT AND THE CAR STARTED MOVING BETWEEN LANES AND EVENTUALLY I HIT THE GUARDING RAIL BY THE RIGHT LANE AND STOPPED. THERE WAS DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE AND IT WAS VERY SCARY BUT I DID NOT HAVE A SCRATCH. I WAS ABLE TO START THE CAR AGAIN BUT I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED AS I WAS TOO SCARED TO DRIVE IT AGAIN. I THANK MY LUCKY STARS THAT THERE WERE NO OTHER VEHICLES IN EITHER LANE DURING THE ACCIDENT OR I WOULD NOT BE WRITING THIS REPORT TODAY. I BELIEVE THE CAR ONLY HAD ABOUT 1500 KM. I CAN`T BELIEVE I SURVIVED.

WHEN ACCELERATING, IT NOSE DIVES AT AROUND 30 TO 45 MPH, DEPENDING ON HOW HARD ONE IS ACCELERATING. I BELIEVE THIS IS CAUSED BY A SHIFT SENSOR BECAUSE IT ACTS LIKE IT LETS GO OF THE GEAR AND AFTER A SECOND OR TWO IT ENGAGES INTO THE NEXT GEAR. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME ONE WANTS TO GO OVER 50 MPH. ALSO, WHEN COMING A COMPLETE STAND STILL STOP AND THEN STAR TO ACCELERATE, IT HESITATES A BIT AND IT MAKES A BUMPING MOVEMENT, LIKE THE TRANSMISSION DIDN'T DOWNSHIFTED INTO 1ST GEAR AUTOMATICALLY, AND DOES IT SO AFTER ONE PRESSES ON THE ACCELERATOR, THUS CAUSING IT TO DOWNSHIFT TO 1ST FROM 3RD AND I BELIEVE THIS IS WHY I FEEL THE BUMPING MOVEMENT AND SLIGHT HESITATION TO ACCELERATE IMMEDIATELY. IT DOESN'T DO IT ALL THE TIME AND I HAVE NOT STUDIED IT TO PINPOINT WHY OR WHEN IT WILL DO THIS, BUT I CAN TELL RIGHT BEFORE IT IS GOING TO DO IT BECAUSE IT IS IN 3RD GEAR AND WHEN I RELEASE THE BRAKE, THE CAR WON'T MOVE FORWARD AS QUICKLY AS IT WOULD IF IT WAS IN 1ST GEAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2017 NISSAN SENTRA. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH, THE CONTACT REAR ENDED THE PRECEDING VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED BACK, NECK, AND RIGHT RIB INJURIES THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AND TOWED TO A TOWING LOT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND DID NOT PROVIDE ASSISTANCE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000. *TT

DOES NOT REGISTER CORRECT GAS MILES. IF I JUST FILLED GAS TANK AND IT READS THAT I CAN DRIVE 258 MILES ON THAT AMOUNT OF GAS WHEN IVE ONLY DRIVEN 25 MILES IT WILL TELL ME IVE DRIVEN 100 MILES THEREFORE REGISTERING THAT I ONLY HAVE 123 MIES LEFT IN GAS, CAUSING ME TO FILL TANK MORE THAN I PROBABLY NEED TO AND NOT REALLY KNOWING HOW MY MUCH FURTHER I CAN ACTUALLY DRIVE. IVE TAKEN PHOTOS THAT REFLECT MILES DRIVEN TO GAS USED. ALSO, CAR GAINS SPEEDS WHEN IM PRESSING BREAK TO SLOW DOWN/STOP. ALSO, WHEN I GENTLY PRESS GAS PEDAL CAR SPEEDS UP FASTER THAN THE ACTUAL GAS IM APPLYING. ALSO, WHEN IN MOTION IT MAKES SUDDEN JERKING STOP WHEN IM PRESSING GAS. SINCE DAY ONE TIRES SEEMED OLDER THAN CAR. IM NOT SURE IF THEY WERE CHANGED OUT AT DEALERSHIP FOR ROTTED/USED TIRES.CONSTANT CHECK TIRE LIGHT COMES ON. THE DRIVER SEAT SEEMS LIKE ITS BEEN TAMPERED WITH OR CHANGED OUT. WHEN YOU SIT IN THE CAR ITS CROOKED, LEANS TO THE RIGHT. WITHIN WEEKS AFTER I PURCHASED THE CAR IVE COMPLAINED TO THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT ISSUES CAR HAS, THEY CLAIM ALL IS FINE WITH THE CAR AND DONT SEEM TO FIND ANYTHING. WRONG. ALSO YOUR SITE SAYS AIRBAG RECALL ON THE 2017 SENTRA, DEALERSHIP TELLS ME IT DOESNT PERTAIN TO MY CAR. I FEEL ITS DEFECTIVE ALL AROUND AND IM NERVOUS DRIVING IT.
